Default Can't decide

Ok, fisrt off I've been researcing for the past two months on the level/ tire/ wheel/ gear setup. I have a 13' XL reg cab 6.5' bed 2wd 3.55 gears currently, ordering the R/C 2.5 level kit tomorrow and right now I'm stuck between tire/ wheel sizes, 285/75r17 toyo at II on SVT raptor wheels, or 285/75r18 on 18x9 Raceline Raptors +25 offset 6" backspacing, will be putting 4.10 gears in next payday. I've looked at pictures for the past two months, can't find any pics of a reg cab short bed with this kind of set up. I kinda want the tries to stick out about an inch if possible.

That's a 35.1" tire. There is no way that will fit a 2wd with just a leveling kit. The 285/75/17 would probably be pushing it too at 34.1".

I can't help much on the subject but do have something that was told to me by a tire guy I know there are a lot more tires out there for 18 inch rims that there are for 17 inch rims. Just more options for tires in the future.
